Wow, I had no idea how good it was going to feel to be out of the office for two and a half weeks until I returned to reality. Had a great time in California with my family and it seems as if a lot happened on the news front while I was gone. See what happens when you take a vacation. I’ve pulled the best articles online from the last two weeks so that the show wouldn’t be too long. It’s good to be back and hope you all get a chance to take some time off before the snow starts to fly. I know that’s a ways off but it will be here sooner than you think. Happy 300th Show ERS and special thanks to all of you who have been along for the ride!
